Hazardous explosive eruptions of a recharging multi-cyclic island arc caldera (2024)
Journal Article

Caldera-forming eruptions of silicic volcanic systems are among the most devastating events on Earth. By contrast, post-collapse volcanic activity initiating new caldera cycles is generally considered less hazardous. Formed after Santorini’s latest c...

“you just look at rocks, and have beards” Perceptions of Geology From the United Kingdom: A Qualitative Analysis From an Online Survey (2024)
Journal Article

In the last few decades, Geology courses, particularly in the Global North, have seen a decline in student enrolment. Geologists have linked this downturn to a lack of exposure to the subject at school and college level. This work seeks to understand...

Geometrical restoration of a late Neoproterozoic depositional framework and an intrabasinal unconformity in the Laurentian margin Dalradian Supergroup, Grampian Highlands, Scotland (2024)
Journal Article

Restoring primary depositional frameworks from orogenic settings is challenging. To demonstrate a robust determination of original, but now highly-deformed, depositional frameworks and their first-order sequence-stratigraphy, we analyse the Dalradian...

Giant offshore pumice deposit records a shallow submarine explosive eruption of ancestral Santorini (2024)
Journal Article

Large explosive volcanic eruptions from island arcs pour pyroclastic currents into marine basins, impacting ecosystems and generating tsunamis that threaten coastal communities and infrastructures. Risk assessments require robust records of such high... Read More about Giant offshore pumice deposit records a shallow submarine explosive eruption of ancestral Santorini.

A multidisciplinary scientific investigation of the 1916 Hawthorn Mine Crater, Beaumont Hamel, Somme, Northern France (2024)
Journal Article

Hawthorn Crater is a prominent feature of the former Somme battlefield near Beaumont Hamel, Northern France.

Introducing Patchwork Assessment into Natural Science curricula (2023)
Journal Article

Patchwork Assessment (or Patchwork Text Assessment) is an alternative to exams or traditional coursework, and may be particularly appropriate for introduction as part of a module being redesigned for flexible digital delivery. It involves students cr... Read More about Introducing Patchwork Assessment into Natural Science curricula.

Aeolian–lacustrine margins: implications for carbon capture and storage within the Rotliegend Group, Southern North Sea (2023)
Journal Article

The Southern North Sea Basins of the United Kingdom were renowned for their hydrocarbon resources and exploited extensively from the 1960s to the 1990s. The Permian Leman Sandstone in particular formed an excellent reservoir due to its extensive clea...

Shedding off-the-grid: The role of garment manufacturing and textile care in global microfibre pollution (2023)
Journal Article

Textile fibres are abundant anthropogenic pollutants. These fibres enter aquatic, terrestrial, and atmospheric environments, and biota. Textile fibres pose biological and chemical threats to the environments they pollute. Laundry is a primary source...

Multi-stage subduction-related metasomatism recorded in whiteschists from the Dora-Maira Massif, Western Alps (2023)
Journal Article

Whiteschists from the Dora-Maira massif (Western Alps, Italy) are Mg and K-rich metasomatised granites which experienced ultra-high pressure metamorphism and fluid-rock interaction during Alpine continental subduction. The sources and timing of fluid... Read More about Multi-stage subduction-related metasomatism recorded in whiteschists from the Dora-Maira Massif, Western Alps.

The neglected spaces of economic rescaling: Insights into the in-between spaces of city-regionalism (2023)
Journal Article

Over the last twenty years considerable attention has focused on the territorial restructuring and rescaling of the state. In particular, there has been an emphasis on city-regionalism to enhance the capacity of formal and more informal structures of...

Geometry and kinematics of the Middle to Late Miocene salt tectonics, central Egyptian Red Sea margin (2023)
Journal Article

The Red Sea basin includes a thick Middle to Late Miocene evaporitic succession that underwent halokinesis and caused intensive reshaping of the seafloor and the development of salt-tectonic structures. However, the geometry and kinematics of these s... Read More about Geometry and kinematics of the Middle to Late Miocene salt tectonics, central Egyptian Red Sea margin.

Going Down The Local The Challenges Of Place-Based Net Zero Governance Final (2023)
Journal Article

Place-based decarbonisation is emerging as a significant element in the UK government’s net zero agenda, specifically through central government devolution deals. Such localised governance has the potential to reap social and economic benefits for co... Read More about Going Down The Local The Challenges Of Place-Based Net Zero Governance Final.
